Hello,

I am new to Lilypond and am THRILLED with it.

I am interested in making a Lilypond syntax highlighter for Notepad++. Have
the issues with the lilypond-words.el file described in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2006-12/msg00345.html been
fixed? Is there any other source of syntax information that would be helpful
that doesn't involve combing through all of the manuals?

Jonathan,

The source-code distribution of Lilypond contains editor configurations for emacs and vim, both of which are quite a bit more advanced text editors than Notepad++ and therefore have accordingly more expressive configurations, including lists of keywords and rules for, e.g., indentation, matching, blocks etc. Depending on whether you read Lisp (emacs) or a simpler scripting language (vim), these configurations may or may not be a source of inspiration.

Cheers
